Collision table

[thehankinator]

Does anyone have the collision type table? It doesn't exist in the documentation anymore. Or has something changed in resolving collisions?

Just for giggles... 

local window = Window:Create("Collision Type Response",0,0,400,300,Window.Titlebar+Window.Center)
local context = Context:Create(window)
local gui = GUI:Create(context)
local base = gui:GetBase()
base:SetScript("Scripts/GUI/Panel.lua")

function AddingItems(widget,table)
	for n=1,#table do
        widget:AddItem(table[n], n==1)
	end
end

types = {"PROP","SCENE","CHARACTER","TRIGGER","DEBRIS","PROJECTILE","LINEOFSIGHT"}
response = {{1,1,1,4,1,1,0},{1,1,1,0,0,1,1},{1,1,1,4,0,1,0},{4,0,4,0,0,0,0},
	{1,0,0,0,0,0,0},{1,1,1,0,0,0,0},{0,1,0,0,0,0,0}}

choicebox1 = Widget:ChoiceBox(20,120,170,60,base)
choicebox2 = Widget:ChoiceBox(190,60,170,60,base)
answer = Widget:Label("COLLIDE",190,120,170,60,base)
answer:SetString("align","Center")
answer:SetString("valign","Center")
answer:SetBool("border",true)
AddingItems(choicebox1,types)
AddingItems(choicebox2,types)

while not window:KeyHit(Key.Escape) do
	if window:Closed() then return false end
       
	while EventQueue:Peek() do
		local event = EventQueue:Wait()
		if event.source == choicebox1 or event.source == choicebox2 then
			local answervalue = response[choicebox1:GetSelectedItem()+1][choicebox2:GetSelectedItem()+1]
			if answervalue == 0 then answer:SetText("NONE") end
			if answervalue == 1 then answer:SetText("COLLIDE") end
			if answervalue == 4 then answer:SetText("TRIGGER") end
		end
	end
	context:Sync()
end

 

I never realized before writing this up that you have no way of getting the current response set for the collision types... for the life of me, I could have sworn it was possible - but no. If there was a Collision:GetResponse(type,type) to go with the undocumented Collision:SetResponse(type,type,response), this little example program would be more accurate/trustworthy. As it stands right now, you have to trust that the table that its based upon is correct and will never change.
